DO NOT BUY a 1.4 HDi Diesel SX C2!!! I had mine for just over 5 months and had it was a nightmare. When it was just over 3 years old the engine started to cut out, I took it to a guy I know who works for Citroen, he said he could tell me what was wrong with it before I told him the symptoms, he said after just over 3 years one of the fuel injectors and a sensor breaks in most of the C2s. The bill for this was just over £1000.00.

I have had three Picasso’s. Good cars, value for money. I had a problem with third- radiators - stones keep hitting and putting holes in it, this was not covered by warranty. At £350 a time this was expensive. Has anybody else had similar problems?

This car, well O-6O in 7 seconds, excellent for a family MPV; acres of space. The best in its class.

Had this car 11 months, never missed a beat. Gearbox bit strange at first but now no problem. Returns 42mpg overall. Loads of storage space and seats extremely versatile. Drives well with one or 7 in but does not like high winds. Now owned more than 60 Citroen’s and it has been a pleasure to drive. May go for the 5 seater next as I don’t need a 7 seater.

I got this car for 3 years and I had 9 accidents. It is much safe and the body is strong and i didn’t have any problems except something in the gearbox that didn’t make the car shift and they changed it for me for free. I’m not in the UK, I’m in Kuwait.

If it is possible to fall in love with a car - then I have! Two previous Mercedes are now a memory.If you want to have an experience with every trip then this is the way to do it. Fabulous comfort, panache, exclusivity and competence - this car has all that and more. It is smooth,quiet,powerful(without the fuss) and has every toy you could ever need. You even have two girls talking to you on the sat nav - one an English school marm and the other a ’bb’ french type with a lisp - heaven!. If you test drive one - give it at least an hour - everything is radically different. I have had the car only a few weeks and the smile has never left my face.

Clutch problems, 2 new clutches fitted one at 9000 miles the other at 22000. Citroen know there is a problem and they are now fitting heavier clutch plates. I have got mine done on the warranty but the local dealer and Citroen have not been very helpful until I threatened legal action and they soon had change of attitude! The rest of the car is very good and just out of warranty; parking sensor gone costing £75.00 to replace fitted. I hope thats it now 24000 on clock and running well.

I love my little C1 and it’s so affordable to run. The only downside is the boot space but it’s a very well designed compact car and looks gorgeous too. Very nice and nippy to drive. Extremely reliable.

I purchased a C2 just over three years ago ..... it’s had regular services & with only 25,000 miles I have had to replace the throttle, clutch & gear box ...... The car isn’t even paid off yet to add insult to injury!! Citroen are well aware of the sensor drive problems but don’t seem to care.

Having read several bad comments about the electronic gearbox on this car, I was quite concerned that I would be disappointed. How wrong can people be?-The gearbox is the smoothest thing since Guinness! I can only think that the bad comments have been left by people who can't drive! The car is already giving 45 mpg, with less than 1000 miles on it, so it's not yet even run in and is getting better all the time. As stated earlier, the gearbox is superb, even in auto mode, which can be over ridden at any time using the paddles and has not missed a beat. I've owned several "people carriers", from most main line manufacturers and this is definitely the best! My family love it and the standard features are nearly all "extras" on other cars (particularly, my previous favourite, the Zafira)-This knocks the Vauxhall into a cocked hat! Don't worry whether you'll like it,-If you can drive-You'll LOVE IT!
